Spent 20 minutes scrubbing a pan every night until I tried soaking it while I eat dinner

I used to finish cooking, eat, then attack the pan with steel wool right away. Scrub, rinse, repeat, 20 minutes gone every single night. A guy I work with said he just fills the pan with hot water and a drop of soap before he sits down to eat. Did that on Tuesday, came back 30 minutes later, one wipe with a sponge and it was done. Now I'm wondering what else I make harder than it needs to be just out of habit.
